Ok I'm 99% sure souyo are dating at the time of p4d (and here's why)
(aka I can't hold it in anymore I HAVE to talk about it)
1. The blown kiss. Of course.
ACTUALLY THIS KISS WAS FASCINATING I don't think anyone else does this? Not even Rise?
It's also not at all Yosuke's style of flirting? Because he normally tends to use humour or jokes he's a WORDS person (which is amazing considering how bad he is at expressing himself with words LOL) so this is definitely bold and definitely Something (TM).
2. Kanamin asking if they were a couple during their partner dance like ???
Also Nanako makes a comment about their bromance and I am so sure that it was yosuke who taught her that word because he's the one who said "bromantically entangled" during Valentine's Day if you spend time with him, Teddie and Kanji
Speaking of family
3. Yosuke clearly being on close terms with Dojima/Yu's family in Inaba even in Yu's absence
Dojima could have called Yu himself but he went through Yosuke instead. Because he knows they talk.
(Actually this was a flag for me because it was the exact kind of thing I used to get - when my partner was living in another city my father in law would give me messages to deliver to my partner because we're family. QED Dojima sees Yosuke as family-)
Also Rise pointed out Dojima's presence but Yosuke being the first person to directly address Dojima at the food court? Take it from me, this is actual son-in-law obligations behaviour. There's suddenly a hierarchy. All of your other friends are shuffling off in awkward silence in front of the parents but not you. You gotta do your job.
Also also Nanako's ongoing good relationship with Teddie... and we know who's Teddie's chaperone, don't we
✨ Family, y'all ✨
3. The couples clothing
The samey saturation/tone in typically opposite colours. The vertical vs horizontal stripes. Yu in a v-neck, a style Yosuke is known for. Did they go shopping together?? They don't even live in the same town anymore and yet. And yet. They're wearing matching clothes??? Atlus how. Atlus why. Don't you dare say it was a coincidence because their outfits in p4g were always so stylistically different from each other ðŸ˜
4. Their personas' instruments
Most of the team's personas played the same instruments that they did during the concert event in p4g, apart from Teddie, Naoto and Rise, and I guess it makes some sense for them?
Yu's concert event was a bass guitar (also... a bass guitar that Yosuke taught him to play...), so Izanagi is also playing a bass guitar.
BUT
Izanagi-no-Okami is playing a normal guitar, not a bass guitar.
LOOK! SIX STRINGS!!
So for some reason it was changed? But instead of being more distinct it just... became the same as Yosuke's. And what's Izanagi-no-Okami? Oh, you know, just Yu's ultimate persona and the culmination of all of his bonds with everyone in Inaba. You know, the most important thing.
Listen the game has spent FAR too much time driving home its point about hearts and dancing and true feelings and emotions and all that for me to let this point go
5. Their partner tracks include the songs titled Your Affection and Signs of Love (TK Remix). Remixes aside there are only two songs in the entire tracklist with titles that explicitly reference positive love (there's also Heartbeat Heartbreak but, well.) - Your Affection and Signs of Love.
I'm sensing a pattern.
Oh and did I mention that all of that stuff was on top of their usual
Being in their own world even though they're around other people
Looking to each other for assurance
The whole Not Needing Words To Communicate thing
Yosuke introducing himself as Yu's partner (bonus! On national television!! To all of Japan!!)
I'm taking no criticism at this point tyvm

No but Luke 100% went to a moisture farming school that taught like real world applicable skills like vaporator/droid fixing, calculating moisture levels, hydroponic gardening etc. Basically like those agriculture schools that directly lead into farming jobs yk? But luke didn't give a shit about agriculture and he doodled ship schematics in his holopad and tried to build his own ship during school break and had to be dragged off from his metal death trap ship by obiwan
I LOVE THEM?!?!?!
He's trying okay.
